Finally did a full protein day
arringtonc49 replied to LifeIsAllGood's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
They are the cheapest and best tasting. There is no sugar alcohol in them.i would not tell somebody to try something I have not tried myself. If you don't want to chew than crush into powder. -

Not true about Flintstone complete vitamins. I had my Bloodwork done and results were beautiful!!!! You can take them. They work good as long as you get the complete. -

My NUT recommended Flintstones and others but Flintstones are cheaper and taste good! I also use liquid Calcium /magnesium that has the taste of a orange dreamsickle ice cream. -
Finally did a full protein day
arringtonc49 replied to LifeIsAllGood's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think it is the kind of protein drink you have. I love my protein powder and I mix in my Yogurt. It taste like good old chocolate pudding. The chewable vitamins I was recommended to get was Flintstones. They are soooooo good for your multi vitamin. -
It is fast but it could be from water weight. Also being on liquid diet after surgery and burning more calories.

3day post op, the protein shakes are killing me.
arringtonc49 replied to Ylm87's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I love my protein shake. It may be the kind you drink. I drank 5 star whey isolate protein. Chocolate flavor. I mix it with water and ice and sometimes unsweetened almond milk. -
